Green Party financial analyst announces for Governor Tuesday
Laura Wells - who garnered nearly a half million votes in a run for State Controller in 2002 - will announce she is running for the Green Party of California nomination for Governor Tuesday here at the State Capitol.
Ms Wells will make the announcement at a news conference TUESDAY, at 11 a.m. at the CAPITOL (South Steps). She will be available for informal interviews at 10:30 a.m.
Ms. Wells, 62, is a former financial and business analyst. Her 420,000 vote count in 2002 is the most any state Green Party candidate has received in a partisan statewide race.
An expert in stocks, bond, pension funds and real estate, Wells, an Oakland resident, continues the tradition of Peter Camejo, an investment specialist who made several runs for governor earlier this century.
Ms. Wells is expected Tuesday to outline a plan to "fix the way money works" in California, creating a fairer tax system to benefit the vast majority of taxpayers, and providing "great" schools, universal healthcare, job opportunities and a cleaner environment.
